[DPC]: should we ask the CPT to move the CPO python environment from python2 to python3?

• "Sunsetting Python 2

  We are volunteers who make and take care of the Python programming language. We have decided that January 1, 2020, was the day that we sunset Python 2. That means that we will not improve it anymore after that day, even if someone finds a security problem in it. You should upgrade to Python 3 as soon as you can."

Discussion on Access Layer High Level Interface in Python
